New Sensor Could Detect Real-Time Changes in Brain Serotonin Levels During Sleep, Fear Written by AZoSensorsDec 24 2020 Serotonin is a neurochemical that plays a critical role in the way the brain controls our thoughts and feelings. For example, many antidepressants are designed to alter serotonin signals sent between neurons. In an article in Cell, National Institutes of Health-funded researchers described how they used advanced genetic engineering techniques to transform a bacterial protein into a new research tool that may help monitor serotonin transmission with greater fidelity than cu...
